void
putFloat64(
    char* buffer,
    double value);

Description

Load into the specified buffer the eight‐byte IEEE double‐precision floating‐point number (in network byte order) comprised of the most‐significant eight bytes of the specified value (in host byte order). The behavior is undefined unless buffer has sufficient capacity. Note that for non‐conforming platforms, this operation may be lossy.
